In response to the Senate Finance Committee and Chairman Wyden (D-OR) releasing a description of the Chairman’s mark for Thursday’s rescheduled hearing on the tax extenders package, the Advanced Biofuels Association (ABFA) released the following statement praising the inclusion of tax extenders that support advanced renewable fuels. The statement should be attributed to ABFA President Michael McAdams

“We applaud Chairman Wyden for including renewal of essential advanced biofuels tax incentives in the extenders legislation he unveiled today. These credits are vital to the ongoing development of the advanced biofuels industry, and our members appreciate the certainty of a two-year extension. In conjunction with a robust Renewable Fuel Standard, this legislation will help keep people in their jobs and clean gallons of renewable fuel flowing. Manufacturers of advanced and cellulosic biofuels urge swift passage by both the House and Senate to send markets a strong signal of continued Congressional support for our emerging industry.”
